## What it is
twigl.app is an online editor for writing ultra-compact 'one tweet' GLSL shaders for WebGL and WebGL2, with modes that auto-complete boilerplate to minimize code size. It includes GIF/WebM/JPEG/PNG export, sound shader support, and live coding broadcast features.

## Use cases
- write and preview GLSL fragment shaders in the browser
- create one-tweet shaders with minimal boilerplate
- export shader animations as GIF or WebM
- live code shaders and broadcast the session
- experiment with GLSL ES 3.0 and MRT rendering
- generate sound shaders with WebAudio

## When to choose
- you want a browser-based GLSL shader playground with minimal boilerplate
- you need to export shader animations as GIF or video
- you want to live-code shaders and share a broadcast link
- you're writing extremely compact shaders for tweets

## When to avoid
- you need a full IDE with debugging and profiling for large shader projects
- you need offline desktop shader development
- you want vertex shader or full 3D scene editing
